Germany, Berlin, Imperial Palace, office of Emperor Qin Tian.

Tonight, Qin Tian made an exception and did not have dinner with his family, but asked the secretary to get some food casually to deal with it. Because, today is the day of the decisive battle between the Imperial Navy and the Entente Navy. After Qin Tian finished his official business, he had been waiting in the office for news of the naval battle. Qin Tian had already ordered, and if there was news from the navy, report to him immediately.

Although, no definite news has yet come. But Qin Tian still believed that the German Navy would definitely be able to win this battle. It is true that Britain, France and Italy have united and assembled a very powerful fleet. However, it was nothing more than a fleet that looked formidable. In fact, compared to the powerful Imperial Navy, the gap is not half a star. Not to mention, the Imperial Navy also has two aircraft carriers to help in the war. The Imperial Navy, equipped with a new type of carrier-based aircraft, is even more powerful, enough to tear apart all the enemies.

However, there are too many uncertainties in naval warfare. Therefore, although Qin Tian was very sure, he didn't dare to really let go of his mind until the real dust settled.

After drinking a cup of coffee, Qin Tian began to think about the future of the empire. It's something he often does when he has free time.

After the Imperial Navy fought this war, it was time to start the transformation. The number of battleships and battlecruisers had to be further reduced. Aircraft carriers were to replace battleships and battle cruisers as the main fleet of the Imperial Navy.

In addition, once the empire received a large number of colonies from the British, it was also an important responsibility of the imperial navy to maintain overseas colonies. This made it necessary for the Reich to have a large number of cruisers, both heavy and light cruisers, which were the shortcomings of the German navy. These are all things that the German Navy needs to focus on in the next stage.

Further construction of destroyers is also needed. After the German Navy became the number one in the world, other enemies may vigorously develop their underwater fleets in order to counter the German Navy, as Germany had taken before. At that time, Germany will have to face a large number of submarine attacks. This required Germany to have a strong anti-submarine fleet. If necessary, the Navy can build a special type of anti-submarine frigate. Weaken other aspects of performance, focusing on strengthening anti-submarine performance. This will be very effective for the German Navy to deal with underwater threats in the future.

Submarines are also a key development arm of the German Navy. Now the performance of the German Navy's submarines is still ahead of the world. However, in Qin Tian's eyes, the performance of the current submarine is still too backward. Not to mention anything else, not being able to dive for a long time, not being able to launch an attack on underwater targets, this is a hard injury. The submarines of the Navy of the future, will develop in this direction.

When Qin Tian went through these development plans in his own mind, the Imperial Navy Minister Marshal Count Tirpitz and the Imperial War Minister and Chief of the General Staff von ? Field Marshal Falkenhein, together to ask for a meeting.

Qin Tian guessed the outcome of the naval battle from the smiles on the faces of the two of them. This made his heart finally put back in his stomach.

"Looks like there's good news for me, two!" Qin Tian said with a smile.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Very good news! Marshal Count Tirpitz blushed with excitement.

"Then I guess our results must have been very brilliant. So, what about my loss? Qin Tian asked.

Marshal Count Tirpitz was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Qin Tian to pay attention to the loss first, so he said: "Your Majesty, our losses are not large, in terms of capital ships, except for the 'Blucher' battle cruiser that was lost before, the other capital ships have not sunk, but some capital ships have been seriously damaged." In terms of small and medium-sized warships, the losses were not large. It can be said that this time the Imperial Navy, with extremely slight losses, won the naval battle. ”

Qin Tian nodded, if the loss was slight, it would undoubtedly be the best. In this way, the Reich Navy would have enough strength to control the world's seas and ensure that German interests in the world would not be violated after the end of the war. Especially after the defeat of Britain, the British colonial empire must be taken over in its entirety. Without a strong navy, there would be no way to protect those colonies.

"Now, then, tell me how great our results are!" Qin Tian said.

"Your Majesty, in this battle, the Imperial Navy completely annihilated all the capital ships of the Allied Combined Fleet. Of these, the French and Italians, with four and two battleships, respectively, surrendered to the Imperial Navy. The other capital ships were all sunk by the Imperial Navy. Two marching generals of the Imperial Navy sank twelve capital ships of the Combined Allied Fleet in this battle. Even those six captured battleships are the credit of the carrier-based aircraft of the aircraft carrier. The French and Italians were completely frightened by the carrier-based aircraft forces of the Imperial Navy. When the carrier-based aircraft of the Imperial Navy hovered over their heads, they naturally chose to surrender. Marshal Count Tirpitz said.

"Haha, I didn't expect aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft to perform so well in this naval battle. I don't think there should be any more doubts about the establishment of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft as the future development priorities of the Imperial Navy, right? Qin Tian asked.

"Of course, Your Majesty. The entire Imperial Navy supported the development of aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft. Marshal Count Tirpitz said immediately. Facts have proven that His Majesty the Emperor was completely right in his vision.

Qin Tian nodded and didn't say any more about this question. Regarding the development of the Imperial Navy, he will find time to discuss in detail with Marshal Count Tirpitz.

"Your Majesty, this time the Imperial Navy has once again won a brilliant victory. The navies of the three Allied countries have been completely wiped out by the imperial navy. In this battle, there will be no variables. "Feng? Falkenhain said.

"Yes, after the defeat of this naval battle. The French and Italians, there is no other choice. I am sure that they will soon surrender. As for the British, they may surrender, or they will stubbornly resist to the end. If they surrendered, the Empire would have to slaughter the British so that they would never have a chance to develop again. If the British choose to resist, then the empire must be prepared to land on British soil to fight. Annihilation of Britain completely! Qin Tian said.
